Ok, i have been working on this for the past, umm 6 hours... and i think i finally know what the problem is... but now how to fix it, so i will have to confer with a higher power: you guys backround: small lab in the basement for the fellew tenants running Windoze 98SE, wanting to use a linux server for basic file'n'print sharing... eventually it will also be a web server and other stuff for the afore mentioned fellow tenants... problem: whenever more than "one" person uses samba (as in browses the server, not logging in) the server crashes: attached is the output of "smbstatus" does anybody know why this happens? isnt there a better way to connect windows machines to a *nix server? does anybody know of a "Client for unix networks"? ok i am asking a few questions too many here, but it is 4 am and i should be asleep, but this damnable daemon keeps cpapping out on me... hmm lets see if this mars_nwe is any good.... -munir ===== -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GAT GIT dpu- s:- a19 C++ UL P+ L+(++) E--- W+ N+ w(--) K?
